Smart Features for Overhead Cranes

Intelligent lifting with Smart Features

Most Konecranes overhead travelling cranes can be loaded with Smart Features, software that gives you control of the material handling in your production processes.

A more efficient operator increases productivity by saving time and money as load cycle times go down. Because the control system optimizes your crane movement, the crane and its components are subject to less wear and therefore could last longer. Most importantly, the chance of human error is reduced, so safety is enhanced.

Technology optimizes your lifting processes

Our Load Control Smart Features are designed to improve the crane operator's safety and productivity by allowing them to make smooth, controlled movements on the crane more easily. Konecranes offers the following load control Smart Features:

Advanced Load Positioning and Area Control for Maximum Productivity and Efficiency

Positioning and Area Control Features help the crane operator position the load more efficiently and accurately, as well as adapt the crane’s working area to the physical layout of your production line.

One at a time or in a package

Our Smart Features have been designed to meet your requirements in advanced lifting needs. We can put them on your new Konecranes orders, but we can also install them on your existing Konecranes equipment. You could have them individually, but we usually recommend feature packages that fit specific production processes.

Contact Konecranes to see which Smart Features work for your existing or new crane.

Konecranes recommends the Sway Control system. The load moves following its familiar route, guided by an experienced operator. Everything works as it should.This is the moment which is always present when the load is moved the traditional way. (In the picture the load is heavily swaying)
Therefore, It speeds up load handling and makes it reliable, easy and safe. Even the most experienced operator is forced to spend time waiting for swaying and swinging to end. With the sway control system turned on, the situation changes dramatically. This is important in daily work. And of course, time is money. To top it all, it also translates into easier work and increased safety.
